This book! This book is so beautifully written it is a pleasure to read. The story, the characters, you fall in love with them almost immediately. I loved this book and it is this kind of book you immediately want to go back and read it again. Read it, you will love it I’m sure!

A entertaining and wonderful book. I’ve fallen in love with the world and it’s characters, and I can’t wait to read the next two books. I was not expecting the romance, but I feel like it did not impede the story in any way.

This is more a romance in a fantastical setting and i wish we could see more from the whole whole and The Mousai but it was a great read nonetheless

This was a fun read! I found the universe to be pretty original, and I really enjoyed the unique magic mechanics/world building. It’s well written and pretty quick to get through. The romance wasn’t my absolute favorite, but I’m glad it was  in the book because it did improve it overall.
